A Community Integrated Living Arrangement (CILA) provides residential support for individuals with developmental disabilities who may need ongoing assistance with daily living, skill development, and community participation. It may be appropriate for individuals transitioning from another living arrangement, preparing to live with greater independence, or needing structured support to manage everyday responsibilities. In Richton Park, Illinois, residential support includes opportunities to practice self-care, household responsibilities, community participation, and other skills used in everyday living.
How It Works
The residential program provides opportunities to develop practical skills through daily activities:
Independence in Daily Skills
- Self-Care Skills
- Dietary Skills
- Household Skills
Economic Self-Sufficiency Skills
- Job Skills
- Money Management
Community Integration Skills

What to Expect
Residents participate in a weekly rotating schedule that provides opportunities to practice different skills each day. Support is provided within the residential setting as individuals work on daily responsibilities and participation in the community. Activities can be adjusted according to the individual’s needs and level of support as they develop greater ability to handle everyday tasks.
